Streptococcal Infections and Treatments

To evaluate the relationship between PD and ACS and the association of PD and periodontitis in ACS patients.Fifty-eight ACS patients and 57 controls with no history of coronary artery disease (CAD) were included in the study.arterial hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity, history of CAD, cigarette smoking, and interleukin-1beta gene polymorphism.One hundred and fifteen subjects were enrolled in the study. In the ACS group, 58 patients were evaluated, 32 of whom (55.2%) were male and 26 (44.8%), female. In the control group, 57 subjects were evaluated, 32 (56.1%) of whom were male and 25 (43.9%), female. Periodontal disease was diagnosed in 26 (44.8%) ACS patients and 15 (26.6%) control patients (beta2 = 4.43, p = 0.04). In a logistic regression analysis, the odds ratio for association between PD and ACS was 1.8 (95% CI: 1.0-5.0); p = 0.24. The odds ratio for association of periodontitis with ACS was 4.5 (95% CI: 1.3-15.6); p = 0.019.No independent association was found between PD and ACS. There was an independent association between periodontitis and ACS.
